Setting Chrome AuthServerWhitelist

[jthurwood]

Hello

I have been using a basic script for the last year to set the Google Chrome AuthServerWhitelist. It's been working fine until recently when it has just stopped, script below. Can anyone see any issues here?

Thanks, Joe

currentUser=ls -l /dev/console | awk {' print $3 '}

open /Applications/Google Chrome.app
sleep 15
defaults write /Users/"$currentUser"/Library/Preferences/com.google.Chrome.plist AuthServerWhitelist ".*.com"
chown "$currentUser":staff /Users/"$currentUser"/Library/Preferences/com.google.Chrome.plist

exit 0

We use a configuration profile with a custom settings plist paylod to apply theses settings. Which makes it easier if we need to add or remove any items from the whitelist. Not sure if that might help or not.
